if something's there, this'll pick it up.

Can you mount this thing...

on a Delta vehicle?

- I don't see why not.

- (Orland) All right, good.

We run missions into the city every day.

I'll put you with our field tech,

tell him how to operate it.

I wouldn't put a tech in between

this camera and myself.

So, you wanna operate it?

If you want that kill shot... you'll need

a fast reaction time out there.

Next mission, you ride with Delta.

They're gonna get you close to this thing.

You get me the kill shot...

you can go home to Virginia

without unpacking.

(man 1)

Got a bad rotor, you gotta swap that out.

(man 2) Weld it onto the front panel.

(indistinct chattering)

Well, well, well. Toll, check that out.

- (man 1) What's this guy up to, man?

- (man 2) I don't know.

(man 3) Believe this guy?

- (man 4) If it works.

- (man 5) For real.

(whistles)

Heard you're installing a camera

on our truck.

Which was fine

until you ripped out that 50 cal.

You're taking down a gun

to put up a camera?

It's the only place large enough

to mount it.

(Toll) You guys get that, right?

I know it sounds like a terrible idea.

We prefer to dance with who brung us...

Dr. Clyne. You get that, right?

"Dance with who brung you"?

No, actually, I don't.

This truck has saved our lives,

many times.

I understand.

(Cabrera) You guys know Dr. Clyne's team

built that truck?

Clyne works over at DARPA.

I've worked closely with his group.

Been to their facilities in Virginia.

- Good to see you, Dr. Clyne.

- Good to see you, Captain Cabrera.

They retrofitted these trucks

with tougher, lighter weight armor.

They designed the mechanical loaders

that do the heavy lifting,

so you boys don't strain yourselves

too hard.

Matter of fact, Dr. Clyne himself

developed the thin weight Kevlar

body stocking that literally...

(Toll grunts) (soldiers groan)

Protects your balls.

So, I would think there'd be nothing

but goodwill in this group for Dr. Clyne.

- Major Sessions.

- Captain, have your men fall back.

- (man 1) Get back to it.

- (man 2) Get her done.

This is Dr. Clyne.

He's worked with us eight or ten times

over the last five years.

You ever go out with the assault team?

No, sir.

He's a good man, major.

That's great. I'm just not a fan

of taking tourists on combat missions.

Sir, I'm not a tourist.

If you're not carrying an M4,

you're a tourist.

I'll carry one, if you'd like.

We gotta get Dr. Clyne out in the field

to track the target force

and get a kill shot.

How long before

this equipment's operational?

A few hours.

- Is it gonna work?

- If we get close enough.

Let me tell you something.

Sergeant Davis... he got close enough.
